Tell Chancellor Merkel: Stop the Darfur Genocide Now
Target: Andrea Merkel, ChancellorSponsored by: Save Darfur Coalition
The tragedy in Darfur has reached a critical moment. Already millions of Darfuris - driven from their homes - are completely dependent on international aid for food, medicine and shelter. But due to escalating violence, much of that aid can no longer reach those who need it most.
A UN peacekeeping force remains the only hope to bring peace to the region.
But the peacekeeping force - already authorized by the UN Security Council - might never make it to Darfur if the Sudanese government doesn’t agree to let it in. That's why it's so important that our world leaders ramp up the pressure and demand that the peacekeepers are admitted.
Now is the time to remind Chancellor Andrea Merkel that Germans are watching, and that we refuse to let the atrocities in Darfur continue.

It is morally wrong not to act to stop genocide.

Chancellor Merkel, I ask that you please use all of your influence and available resourses to aid and assist the helpless people of Darfur from slaughter. Every day counts. They are quickly running out of time. There is no excuse to stand by and allow genocide to happen. The world and its leaders must act now before it is too late.

The German people have taken a bold step in electing a woman chancellor. NOW HER FIRST ACT WOULD BE TO SEND PEACEKEEPERS TO DARFUR!

Germany, of all countries, should be moving to stop the genocide in Darfur - it is a matter of conscience for all people of this world to not stand by again.
